6 of Swords

October 29th

My story:
I am used to getting this card when a relationship or friendship is coming to a point where the best thing to do is to step away whether for a few days or for indefinite period of time or forever if the relationship has outlived itself. But it always signifies a break from someone or something without any time frame.

General Meaning:
A situation that is to chaotic to deal with. You have no option but to accept the help you are offered and leave the whole situation behind you. This card can represent a journey by water or a journey out of danger or perhaps a time to simply take a break from the situation, sitting in quiet meditation.

2 of Swords

October 22nd

My story:
This card came out once when a querent was in a relationship with energetic vampire who not only drained him emotionally but was draining his material resources as well and the best thing to do was to cut her out of the querent's life in order to allow someone new, someone better, to enter. In a healthy relationship give and take should be well-ballanced in order for relationship to grow and be mutually satisfying and successful.

General Meaning:
Nobody wins and nobody looses, we just break even. There is a delicate balance of life and death in a healthy ecosystem. This card puts you on notice that maybe it's time to cut out whatever drains your energy or resources. Time to cut the disease out of your life. First you need to create a void or an empty space for it to be filled with newness. Ending followed by a new beginning.

General Meaning:
This card represents our connection with the past. It envokes the use of archeological evidence, forensic sciences, as well as new cultural histories,
to open new doorways to our ancestral past to learn more about our ancestors and ourselves.

My story:
For me this card always comes up whenever the root of the issue at hand lies in the past. When without looking back one cannot find the key to the future. it could be either in our past experiences, our past conflicts, old habits etc. Look back and you will find it.

Ace of Swords

September 23rd - December 21st

My story:

General Meaning:
A time for quick and drastic change. Time of harvest when rewards come from your own efforts. Warning to take caution not to overspet and take too much.
Also this card represents burning emotion, not the light hearted emotions of the Cups, but the passion that runs deep and carries equal portions of pain and deepest satisfaction and joy. Emotion that will make you go forward and fight to get what you want.
